| Drinking Songs playlest... What am I missing? You have to mix it up a little with Tone Loc’s Funky Cold Medina. | |
| What is your top sexy song? My favorite sexy song is, well I have two by the same singer that definitely go together. It’s Teddy Pendergrass and the songs are Close the Door and of course followed by, Turn off the Lights. | |
| Cd player Transport/Dac advice No, I don’t have subwoofers. My speakers produce a pretty satisfactory amount of bass. | |
| Time For a CD Player Upgrade Does anyone have any real life experience in comparing the new Luxman D-10x and Esoteric K-01xd with EMM Labs Tsdx transport and Dac Dac2xV2 combo? Just thought since there’s so many knowledgeable cd people on this thread someone may have experien... | |
| IsoAcoustics GAIA I had a little luck with my Gaia’s after replacing them with platforms. The threading for the speakers was identical to the threading on my amp stands. So, I removed the carpet spikes from the amps, replaced them with the Gaia’s and ordered some o... | |
| IsoAcoustics GAIA I had Gaia’s on top of concrete blocks and the sound was pretty awesome. The bass was deep and tight, soundstaging and transparency was impressive. Due to the tweeter height I switched over to some platforms that are always said to be a step up fr... | |
| Isolation systems @rsf507 I am actually talking to a Carbide Audio rep now. Their product sounds interesting. If I go with footers or a device under my rack my top three would be the Townshend seismic corners, Carbide Audio footers, and the Nordost Sort Fut’s. | |

| Isolation systems I’m in the process of moving my rack back a few feet and it’s going to be a pain. I have done some research on Carbide Audio, Townshend, and Nordost footers for racks, in place of the original spikes. For the prices they charge don’t really want t... | |
| ARC M300 MKII call for help If all else fails give Isaac Markowitz at ARC a call. He’s the sales rep for ARC and a great guy to deal with, if there’s anyway to get it done he’ll find out. | |
| ARC M300 MKII call for help Give True Sound in Campbell, CA a call. Ask for Nick. He will sometimes surprise you with what he can do. | |
| Do you belong more to souce first or to speakers first school of thought ? I’ll go with speakers, but as someone else mentioned previously, I would put a lot of consideration into the room and what type of speakers would perform best in that room. | |
| Racks, equipment and footers If you want a rack made of wood and info on footers for the rack I would check out Massif. If you’re more concerned with a rack with an isolation system designed into the rack I would check out Core Audio Design. Both owners are very knowledgeable... | |
| Audio Research Pre-Amp advice There’s an Ls28 for sale on eBay for $5500. It doesn’t say SE. A little over 1000 hrs on the tubes. |
